JCP scale gloss

[Terranaut]

So one of my jungles has a shine to it and one does not. Many of you know my Mick and Sheila. Mick has an awesome "flat" texture to him while Sheila has a low gloss look. A year and a half ago I bred them and only got 2 snakes out of the clutch due to Sheila "slugging out" which she did completely last year. So I kept both young. Alpha had the flat look and Beta had the shine. Now at 16 months old this has changed and both have the flat look. Unfortunately one is a chainsaw and strikes continuously when touched as well as hissing and blowing himself up to look huge. Anyway, I am curious what texture is more popular with JCPs? What sort of shine does yours have? Has their texturr ever changed?

Don't have a jungle, but my IJ is very glossy! Your snakes are gorgeous as well. :)

My Diamond x Jungle also as the flat Black. My Jungle x jag has the gloss.

I think clean patterened individuals will be more glossy, while the more speckled or muddied out patterns create a more flatter black.

The two babies were not the same after the first few sheds. Beta was glossy and now flat. They have similar paterns. I find it fascinating that jungles can have this and wonder what wild snakes are like in this respect.

Chuck...Electra looks awesome!!!

Another of Mick that shows the flat..even in direct sunlight.
